Yes, that is very true. Managers and S.D. are 2 that I do train individually because of their extra benefits of doing so.

my player has become a free agent. When do I pay/agree to pay to keep him?
Will I get a notification after his time on the market expires or do I have to do something before that?

Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for.

From the guide
"Restricted Free Agent
A player who is 26 years old and whose contract expires in 14 days. This kind of player has the right to negotiate with other teams. His new contract will be made up of signing bonus and daily salary calculated by the standard key. The contract is signed for 336 days (3 seasons). The teams can send bids from 14 to 8 days before the contract expires. Then the current team will have 7 days to decide. It is enough for the current team to match 15% to 70% of the highest offer (the exact number depends on the number of paid out season bonuses) in order to keep the player. If the current team does not match the required amount, the player signs a contract with the highest bidder. His former team receives a compensation in the amount of 50% of the signing bonus for losing a restricted free agent."

So when his time on the market expires you will have 7 days to decide to give him the money required or let him go and receive half of what he signed for

that would be correct

Thank you. I probably should have looked at the guide again.

What's the best closing time for a player on the market?

I'm selling a goalie and I'd like to get as much as I can for him.

(I'm in central time zone, Winnipeg)

I find the best time is between 1am and 4am my time (Australia). That is 10 - 13 hours from now.

The time when the most people online are around noon your time, or an hour or two before and after. Worst times are in the evenings, as most of the Euros are sleeping.

1-2pm ET is best. Thus, Noon-1pm CT.

Cool, thanks guys

I sometimes put far for perfect players late at night, around 10 or 11 pm ET. And I get pretty good results.

Often, this type of players tend to be burried under toom many really good free agent. Putting such players on the market when competition is weak makes them look better.

There is a balance for sure. More players being sold = more competition but more buyers. Less players being sold = less competition but fewer buyers.

Whats the deal with RFAs? Do your players you've trained from the beginning of the game just finally decide they have had enough and decide to leave? you have no choice in decided if they stay and there is no information anywhere(that i can find) about what happens with rfas.

You have the option to re-sign them at a discount:
